National Trust makeover must be far-reaching
It’s good to hear the National Trust trying to improve its image but I really hope it does indeed try harder to make an actual visit to one of its properties a more pleasant experience.
I don’t think I have visited one since a trip to Waddesdon Manor some years ago, where I was charged about 15p for a slab of butter (we were not allowed to have our own picnic) and my 4-year-old daughter was heavily scolded by some old crow when she inadvertently went under a rope in one of the viewing rooms.
She’s 17 now.
